A gas explosion in Vienna has injured nine people. The suspect is a 93-year-old man.

A 93-year-old man is suspected of intentionally causing a gas explosion in his family home in Vienna's Floridsdorf district, which destroyed his house and injured nine people, including himself. The blast severely damaged neighboring homes, and three individuals, including the suspect, were hospitalized. Among the injured was a 25-year-old pregnant woman who was taken to the hospital. Six local residents received treatment at the scene and were released for home care. Search dogs helped locate the man in the basement of his completely destroyed and partially burned home, where he was rescued by rescuers and taken to the hospital with serious injuries. The man was detained on suspicion of endangering public safety and is under supervision in the hospital. Viennese detectives have launched an investigation into the incident.
